摘要:Seashore and coastal areas are the object of human pressure, affecting population well-being and threatening the future economic growth of local communities. To deal with this issue, we discuss an original theoretical model representing the change in tourism demand for a seaside site affected by coastal erosion due to environmental problems. We find out that the decline of the tourist location could occur not only in case of a strong seashore reduction, but even when the coastal erosion still permits tourism demand and satisfactory income for tourism operators.
